I think electric cars absolutely are the future. Every five years they seem to have incredible advances in battery technology especially in the amount of energy they can store. The only reason I won't buy one anytime soon is regardless of what star rating they give them, they are death traps. Just like my little compact I ran around with not too many years ago. Five star safety crash test rating, but worthless if a Tahoe tbones ya in an intersection.you know how you had that one thread where you called electric cars 'faggy'?
well, my wife recently got a hybrid. can't even tell the thing is on when you back out of the driveway. i called it faggy too.
but then i drove it around for a while. you can go on calling them 'faggy', i will now call it 'smart'. especially facing $4/gallon gas.
i am a bit of a purist, i love to hear a car fire up and the roar of an engine. but i am now happy to forgo the classic car experience to reap the rewards.
edit: it gets about 50 mpg and has decent pickup to boot. sure beats the 18 mpg i get out of my shitbird.
i am very happy you are happy with your purchase. i would not be able to use a car like that as i am a contractor and must have a truck. i resent that people think that i am a polluter and your not. its total fucking bullshit. you arent saving the planet. you are driving a car that you think is neat and saves you money. good for you i am sincerely happy for you. now kindly stay out of my business while i decide what my needs are.you know how you had that one thread where you called electric cars 'faggy'?

the same thing that happens when a mountain explodes into oblivian releasing really toxic shit. sometimes even wipes out species, and entire ecosystems....its true look it up
a cat 5 hurricane releases the equivelant of 7000 nuclear war heads exploding.....explain that?
i cant, but i know there is nothing you or anyone else can do to stop it.
Didn't Al Gore discover Global warming? Wasn't it right after the internet? I think he invented the internet and the first webpage that popped up was the IPCC website.What does Gore have to do with global warming?
This is because to harvest oil it takes oil to refine the oil, it takes oil to transport the oil for refining, it takes oil to transport the oil for sale etc.14 dollar gas hurts everyone, especially the poor. and its for no good reason other than the people pushing it to feel better about themselves. further, it puts R and D programs at risk, and even stresses schools. i contract for a school. 2000 seat school costs 750,000 a year, or about 3 percent of total budget. for electric alone. tell me how 14 dollar gas improves the school?
i don't think you are a polluter, i think you have the vehicle you need. i am currently trying to trade my shit bird for a good gas mileage pickup so i can do some landscaping work around town and have a place to put the yard debris.i am very happy you are happy with your purchase. i would not be able to use a car like that as i am a contractor and must have a truck. i resent that people think that i am a polluter and your not. its total fucking bullshit. you arent saving the planet. you are driving a car that you think is neat and saves you money. good for you i am sincerely happy for you. now kindly stay out of my business while i decide what my needs are.

its hogwash and i resent it, strongly
you would really have to give some evidence that the messiah wants cheap gas. he has stated publicly, just the opposite and the first thing he did when getting emaculated was to remove a couple million acres from the possibility of drilling.i don't think you are a polluter, i think you have the vehicle you need. i am currently trying to trade my shit bird for a good gas mileage pickup so i can do some landscaping work around town and have a place to put the yard debris.
i don't think expensive gas will help anyone, neither does "the chosen one, the messiah". he wants to open up the strategic reserves to ease the current rise is prices so the recovery doesn't sputter. if you think ANYONE wants high gas prices, i would say that is hogwash, and would resent it strongly.
based on what i can gather from your posts, i was raised not too far from where you live. funny how we are so different in opinion.
yeah, i thought the same thing the other day.this thread was all the rage when it was still cold outside....
i see conservatives are avoiding the subject.
